Gay Pride Parade In Belfast Not Embraced By All


Thousands of people are expected at the Gay Pride parade in Belfast city centre on Saturday. Unfortunately not all embrace such a parade within the city.

A representative of the Orange Order who did not wish to openly come out and speak to us confirmed over the telephone, “ I think it is terrible that people wearing garish colours should be allowed to play their loud music in our city centre. They should think about the feelings of the general public who neither want them here nor want them marching into area’s that they are not welcome in. I mean we in the orange order would never do such a thing so why should they?”

McFly New Album Possible World Record

Pop band McFly are to give away their new album Radio:ACTIVE with the Mail on Sunday newspaper on 20 July.

Singer Tom Fletcher told the BBC it was a good way of expanding their fan base and reaching new audiences.
He said: "We get to put it into almost three million homes, which is an incredible opportunity for us. The fact they will end up in every landfill site in the country is no concern to us at all especially if we managed to get the world record for most albums gone straight to the bin”

We Ask Is Pete Burns Dead Or Alive?


Pete Burns formally of Dead or Alive has stated in the papers that he is in the process of taking his plastic surgeon to court. Mr Burns has for sometime now felt that his last lot of surgery has made him a laughing stock in the eyes of the general public. He tasted fame the other year when he was one of the celebrities at the Big Brother house. However, since the publicity has died down he has instructed his solicitor to seek legal action against Dr Frank. N. Steiner of the Coy Carp Plastic Surgery Centre in Kirby Liverpool.

We contacted Dr Steiner and asked for a response to Mr Burns accusations. Dr Steiner a respected surgeon in the Kirby area replied, “I am very upset at this slur on my surgical reputation. I have been working in this field for years now and fortunately I have just managed to build a surgery on it. I am a renowned plastic surgeon and I can assure you I did my utmost best with the poor standard of face I had to work with. If he wants to make an issue of it tell him to take it out of my face.”

We asked the Dr to confirm where he feels things may have possibly gone wrong with Mr Burns’s surgery, “I can only say that I did my best. However, looking back at the patient’s records I did note he had given a picture of what he hoped surgery would leave him looking like when he woke from surgery. I can only say this may have caused problems.”

We have acquired a copy of the photo held on Pete Burns file at the surgery and can only assume the doctor was right after all.
